Here is a F Scott Fitzgerald This Side of Paradise 1st edition signed item we have sold in the past:
Signed First Edition of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s Acclaimed Debut Novel “This Side of Paradise” — “…to write it took three months; to conceive it — three minutes; to collect the data in it — all my life…”
Rare F. Scott Fitzgerald signed first edition, third printing of “This Side of Paradise”. New York: Charles Scribner’s Sons: 1920. One of approximately 500 copies with a tipped-in “Author’s Apology” leaf boldly signed in pen, “Sincerely / F. Scott Fitzgerald”. Prepared for an American Booksellers Association convention, Fitzgerald’s signed “Apology” reads: “I don’t want to talk about myself because I’ll admit I did that somewhat in this book. In fact, to write it took three months; to conceive it — three minutes; to collect the data in it — all my life. The idea of writing it came on the first of last July: it was a substitute form of dissipation. My whole theory of writing I can sum up in one sentence: An author ought to write for the youth of his own generation, the critics of the next, and the schoolmasters of ever afterward. So, gentlemen, consider all the cocktails mentioned in this book drunk by me as a toast to the American Booksellers Association. May, 1920″. Hardcover book, without dustjacket, is in original teal-cloth boards and measures 5.5″ x 7.5”. “S” in Fitzgerald’s “Sincerely” is slightly smudged. Very good. Sold for $8,000.
